"...working through those issues is worth it."
That's the measure of a healthy relationship. Two people recognizing issues and working through them together. Sometimes, one partner seems to work harder than the other, but things tend to even out, over time.
Eventually, if you're lucky, you get to the point where most "issues" are just dealt with in the flow of everyday life, without much extra effort. Love, trust, and the ability to compromise are keys to a long, happy relationship.
(gawd, I've been sounding like a freakin' Pollyanna lately!)
